Where Have All The Flowers Gone… 80 years after the war – photographs by Roger Cremers
Exhibition
Jüdisches Museum Wien Dorotheergasse 11, 1010 Wien
8.5.2025 — 18.1.2026
Artists: Cremers Roger
Curator: Adina Seeger
On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the end of the war in 1945, the Jewish Museum Vienna presents a photography exhibition addressing European cultures of remembrance and the lasting impact of the Shoah and the Second World War in the present day. Since 2008, with his series World War Two Today, Dutch photographer Roger Cremers (*1972) has documented historically contaminated landscapes, former battlefields, and memorial sites across Europe. In doing so, he seeks answers to the question of how post-war societies deal with the legacy of the great catastrophes of the 20th century.
Cremers photographs official commemorations as well as reenactments, art projects, excavations, and private visits to memorial sites. He thus becomes a chronicler of remembrance, but also of the repression and forgetting of the Second World War in many parts of Europe and in Russia. The exhibition shows that even 80 years after their end, the Shoah and the Second World War have left deep traces in landscapes, societies, and individuals.
